CHICAGO, August 22.-Discontent reigns once
more among the men at Pullman. It was caused
by the announcement Saturday morning that the
wages OF all trtmmers were TO be dut down 10 per
cent. There are nearly 100 men In the department
and for time the striking sentiment ran high. A
meeting OF the Knights OF Labor OF the Pullman
situation was discussed. No decisive action was
taken regarding a strike, which the majority Of
the dnlghfs seemed TO feel would be bad thing to
order at this time OF the year Moreover as two
years ago a similar cut was followed by a general
one In all In the departmentSitS thought quite
likely that this TALL would see another order

Tne cause Tor the cut, given by the company, Is
SLACK orders, but the men claim that as the work
Is done by the piece. some OF the men turn out an
celve an unusual salary. The company It is
Claimed, looks only at the amount earned, without
regard to The hard work and has consequently or.
dered the cut In wages. Another subject discussed
at the meeting OF Saturday was the intended stop
page or work for the season at the brick yard. The
men were out on strike from May until July, and
are 10 pitiable financial condition. About three
hundred men, most or whom are married, VIII be
thrown out OF work by the shutdown which is TO
occur Wednesday. The shutdown takes place
regularly about this OF year, and no more work
for snort time longer or two Chamber machines,
which, together, employ about forty men.
